Hacking Themes for Configurable USB Loader

[daleybox]

Think I figured it out....

Just checking you worked it out properly...

The Configurator won't change the resolution of the image you provide, but you should choose the 800 or 854 width options in the Overlay Wizard to see how the image you chose will look when stretched to the widescreen size. Build your overlay in that mode and it should display correctly when creating the theme.

I figured that out, should have been easier but I just missed it the first time around. I'm happy with one image being stretched, but I had seen others have two background images, I wasn't sure how they did that, I guess they just make a 16:9 widescreen one and then resized it.

What I ended up doing was exactly what you said, making a 854 overlay. Instead of having the overlay and the background image, I went ahead and stretched my image in an editor, put the overlay on top of it, and added a couple of other images, like the logo, then resized the composite image to 640 x 480. So when it's widescreen, it stretches just like I saw on the screen. It works well. Thank you for the tool!

Hi!

First let me say that I am IMPRESSED with the quality of the themes here!! Awsome!

I just ordered a skin for my WII: http://www.decalgirl.com/item.view/6872

I was wondering if anyone here could make a theme with it?

If the picture is too small there are other red-skull images out there - like:

and

Though the "misty" kind of red skull from the skin would be the coolest!

Anyone up for it??

I have no graffix-skills....

Anyone having problems with rapidshare or other download hosting sites I suggest you check out jDownloader. http://jdownloader.org/

You still have to wait for the timer delays and whatnot, but it does it all for you. Once you learn how to use it, it's very powerful. You can load up a bunch of links in it and go to bed, and have all your files in the morning.

My wonderful admin over at http://wii.spiffy360.com has made a list of all the themes that need the .rar file changed to .zip and it would be great if the original theme maker could do this and limit the work the admins have to do. Please review the list and if you are one of the theme makers, please log into your account and re-upload a .zip version of your theme so its compatible with the (soon to come) theme downloader.

Hey guys, I have a little problem: I don't have a wide screen TV and all my themes for Cfg show a black bar at the bottom in console view like the picture is stretch. Does anyone know how do I solve this for the console view? Thank you!

Your Wii is probably PAL and you have it set to 576i. Set it to 480i in the Wii settings and it'll look fine.

Hello to all;
I was trying to build a Theme but I cant find stylised buttons (load buttons image) for my theme, like the one for
http://wii.spiffy360.com/themes/gameshark/...riobrothers.jpg

Can somebody post a link to that load button image? please.

Thank you again

Heads up to our theme creators: The new preview_coords option is themeable, so go ahead and add it to your themes. The default location is the cover area, but that is just too small a lot of the time. The correct aspect ratio (width:height) of the previews is 4:3 whereas something around 16:13 seems to work best for widescreen.
